Chapter 12: Top of the world...

And I present to you, the Top of the world!!!

Right...

The Circle of 9, being the restless people that they were, decided that an adventure was in the making, theirs for the taking + the need to do something else other than staying in the resort area = search for a waterfall. (the reason being they heard so much about the waterfalls there they decided that a trip will be wasted without a pilgrimage to see at least one of them...)

Now here's the difference between fact and fiction.

Fiction: The Circle of 9 braved treacherous paths that led them in a merry-go-round of sorts, running into dangers at every wrong turn, be it drooling, half-crazed beasts to a lost tribe of savages, all the while exposing themselves to the mercy of nature, who bombarded them with pouring rain, scorching sun, biting winds.... you get the picture.

Fact: The most interesting thing that they did was this:

Prawn catching.
I kid you not. Snake, KingKong and Ayekay were quite amused and contented with catching baby prawns and 'transferring' them into the water bottles that we were carrying.
Nuff' said.

Despite the minor 'roadblock' that halted their progress for a period of time, our brave friends persevered, went up up up and viola!!

Gnin, Dragonlady and Snakey. Positively beaming!

But like what they say, what goes up must come down.
So we leave the Circle of 9 for now, as they make their way down slowly, we shall make our way out of these memories, quietly, lest we stir up the memories meant for another time...

Till next time, Tinman out...
